Description:
Kennesaw Mountain National Battlefield, located in Georgia, preserves the site of a significant Civil War battle fought from June 27 to July 2, 1864. As part of Union General William T. Sherman's Atlanta Campaign, the battle saw Confederate forces under General Joseph E. Johnston successfully defend the mountain against Union attacks. Though the Confederates held their ground, Sherman ultimately outmaneuvered them, continuing his push toward Atlanta. Today, the site serves as a historical park, offering visitors a glimpse into the battlefield’s past with preserved earthworks, monuments, and interpretive trails.
